I continued by working\u00a0out everyday just as I would be if I were in season and praying I would get another\u00a0chance. This whole situation really,I feel like, gave me a new love and appreciation for the game.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What are your hobbies outside of football?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Outside\u00a0of football I like to cook for myself but especially for other people, watching sports, play various\u00a0sports (basketball, baseball\/softball, tennis\/pickleball, etc), I love to fish, play with my dog, workout, and bible study\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What role do you see yourself playing at the next level?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I believe my role to begin with will be special teams and or practice squad. Truthfully any role that I get an opportunity to play I will be grateful and give it my everything.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>If you could donate to one cause in the world, what would it be?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I would donate to help world hunger\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>How do you handle coaching, especially criticism or being corrected repeatedly?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I have learned to listen to the message and not the tone, so I would say that I take coaching fairly well<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Who is the most underrated teammate at your school?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I would say it is probably Sebastian Rouse because of his size<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>If you could have dinner with three people, dead or alive, who would it be and why did you choose them?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Jesus Christ, Julio Jones, Denzel Washington. I chose these three because Jesus would be able to give me spiritual\u00a0advice\/guidance that no one else can, Julio would be able to give me advice on football from a league standpoint along with tips for a receiver and financial\u00a0advice, finally I feel like Denzel would give great life advice and also because he is my all time favorite actor.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>If you were benched tomorrow, what would be the most likely reason?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Honestly it would have to be that the man behind me deserves the job more than me\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Walk me through your typical pre-game routine?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Start by warming up on the field with a dynamic warm up and footwork drills ( most of the time a ladder), next is a light pat and go with QB\u2019s, then depending on how much time we have until the first group is out I will sit on the field and just vibe to my music and think about the game plan. Then I go back into the locker room and roll out a little bit, relax and definitely use the bathroom before I go out for team stretch. \u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What is your favorite snack food?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>fruit snacks (Welch or Motts)\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What scheme do you feel you fit the best in?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I would say a vertical passing scheme\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What is your degree in?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sport Management<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What would be the first thing you buy with your first NFL check?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Definitely a house for my grandmother\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Describe a time in a game where you feel you made a mistake, and explain how you bounced back?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In the first series of the first game of last season I caught a 94 yard touchdown but got it called halfway back because\u00a0I started to taunt on my way to the end zone. Of course the coach took me out and I instantly knew I messed up, took the coaching and collected myself and reminded myself of my goals along with the team\u2019s goals. Once I went back in I did not talk or entertain the other team anymore and proceeded to score about a 40-50 yard touchdown and win the game. \u00a0 \u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Name three songs, we can expect on your playlist?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Altar- Hulvey ft Forrest Frank<\/li>\n<li>Gave It All \u2013 FCG Heem ft Lil Poppa\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Encore \u2013 Cheryl Lynn\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\" itemscope itemprop=\"author\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nfldraftdiamonds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/NFL-Draft-Diaminds_Hula-Bowl.png\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" alt itemprop=\"image\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>NFL Draft Diamonds was created to assist the underdogs playing the sport.
